Checking Your Luggage Is Asking For Trouble.
Which Do Not Come In Travel-Size Packets.
But Is Handy For Sudden Funerals.
Less Is Invariably More.
Would Devastate You.
Name's Lucas Loomis.
People Just Like You. I Guess.
Ha Ha Ha!
It Didn't Work With Me. Though. Did It?

Hello. Macon.
Well. That's Very Nice Of You. Sarah.
How's Your Ears?
Even After A Year.
Macon?
Macon.
But I Can't Live With You Anymore.
What Did You Say?
I Want A Divorce. Macon.
I Rented An Apartment Downtown.
But It Doesn't Have To Tear Us Apart.
No. I'm Sorry. It Would Never Work.
It Was A Crazy Idea. A Very Crazy Notion. But...
All I'm Saying Is We Can Start Over.
I Could Live In This Kind Of World Anymore.
No. It's Not. It's Not.
That's Why I Have To Go.
Away From You.
Let Me Go.
Must Have 10 Miles Of Corridors.
But Make Up Your Mind.
Ow.
Or I Could Let Myself In On Saturday.
And I Think. Why Bother Getting Up?
Why Bother Breathing?
Me. Too. Sweetheart.
To Identify The Body.
Yes. That Is My Son.
If That's All Right.
[Children Shouting]
There's Nothing To Worry About!
Don't Forget To Put When You'll Be Back.
Oh. Good.
Muriel Pritchett.

For Their Bedspreads.
In The Important Category Of Hotel Plumbing.
Not Much Different From A Meal In Cleveland.
Just As Sold At The Yankee Stadium.
Have A Nice Day. Eh?
Oh. Just A Minute.
Hi There. How Was Your Trip?
That's Wonderful. So. Uh...
Caroline Will Bring Him.
Yes.
That Will Be $42.
Signature And Phone.

[Telephone Ringing]
[Ring]
Macon. It's Muriel.
Who Got On So Good With Your Dog.
I Was Just Wondering How Edward Was.
Maybe I Could Just Come Around And Discuss It.
I'd Fix You Supper.
Macon. What Do You Say?
I Don't Want To Be Pushy--
[Whimpering]
This Basement Is Not Haunted!
That Ought To Do Nicely.
[Ruff Ruff]
Buck Up.
[Edward Whimpers]
That's The Stuff. Edward!
[Yelping]
Whoa!
Oh.
Can Seem As Welcoming As An Ancestral Home.
It's Nice To Be So...
I Don't Mind.
[Whistles]
[Telephone Rings]
Macon!
[Barking]
Edward. Cut It Out!
Oh. Oh. She And I Are. Uh...
[Edward Barks]
Rose: Hush. Now!
Here. Let Me Help You.
How Do You Do?
Here. I'll Take That.
And You Can Check It.
[Barking]
[Telephone Rings]
[Ring]
That That's Where They Are.
Traveling Armchairs Dream Of Staying Put.
And The Northeast Again.
Edward! Stop It!
Ohh...
What Do We Have Next?
[Imitates Growling]
Right.
I Just Can't Get Rid Of Him. That's All.
Let Me See What I Have.
Edward. Sit.
Stay.
That Was Very Good.
Mm-Hmm.
Here You Go.
Make Him Sit.
Poke Him Down.
[Growls]
Ssssst!
Don't You Just Hate That Name?
Who's The Lady?
You Can Release Him Now.
Ssssst!
I Never Even Took My Wife.
No One Else Can Practice For You.
[Cluck Cluck Cluck]
Now. Good-Bye.
Couldn't You Just Once Invite Me To A Family Dinner?
It Always Meant No.
Now. This Is The Heel Command.
No. I'm Not.
Slow. Fast. Anything.
Sit!
Heel!
Good.
[Cluck Cluck Cluck]
Now You.
He Knows What He's Supposed To Do.
Plus The 4 Cents You Owe Me From Yesterday.
That's A Promise.
And Rely Upon One's Innate Common Sense.
[Edward Barks]
Come In.
Yes. He's In The Back Yard.
Hi. Guys.
I'd Love Some.
I'm Going To Get You Some Nice. Hot Coffee.
Uh. Here You Go.
I'll Go Help Rose.
I Know.
It's Sad. Really.
Just Black's Fine.
Here You Go.
You Repair Their Plumbing.
[Saw Whines]
Edward...Stay.
Now. You Watch Him While I Walk Away.
Forever. Just About. And Nearly Died.
They Make Everything Seem So Close-Up.
[Clucking]
2 Quarts Of Teeming. Swarming Bacteria.
Is This The Thanksgiving We All Die?
Oh! Here Comes The Turkey.
Here It Is.
It's Perfectly Good.
I Can See What's What.
You Don't Want Julian To Fall In Love With Me.
Do What?
Uh. No.
She's Perfectly Fine.
Julian. A Potato?
I'll Take The Turkey.
That Julian Wears Crew Necks?
2 Big Helpings.
Very Inventive.
Hi. What A Good Boy.
Have To Try It Sooner Or Later.
Hmm. Too Pink-Y.
Think It Over A While.
Oh. I. Uh...
Could Come.
If It's Only For Dinner.
Here He Is.
Hi. Sweetie.
[Engine Grinds]
Macon: Dear Muriel...
Something Has Come Up.
Regretfully. Macon.
[Door Unlocks]
Macon. What Are You Doing Here?
I Lost My Son.
But I'm Just Not Up To This.
Do You Hear?
I Know That People Expect It Of Me.
Before I Remembered He Wasn't There To Be Wakened.
But The Second Year Is Real.
I've Sometimes Let A Whole Day Pass By...
Without Thinking About... About Him.
She's So Used To My Arranging Her Life.
Now I'm Far From Everyone.
And Everyone Looks Trivial And Foolish And...
Not Related To Me.
Lie Down And Sleep.
[Alexander Coughing]
Everything's All Right.
I Just Want To Sleep.
Can You Take This Off?
I'm Bashful.
Man: All Right. Gunther!
Well. I Am.
Ta-Da.
Ma. I'm Going Now. Macon's Here.
The Top Screw.
Without Me.
Hard!
Good. Good.
We Take This Wrench. We Have To Tighten This Up.
Macon: Turn That Valve.
Let A Real Man Take Care Of This."
I'd Like To Show You Something. Macon.
Well. I Really Couldn't Say.
I Mean. 2 Differentnesses.
Right.
All Right.
Yes.
Oh. I. Um...
It's Amazing. Isn't It?
I Look Great!
Mm-Hmm. Fine. You've Told Me.
Porter. Just Shut The Hell Up.
Itch It. Pritchett. Pritchett. Itch It.
Good Boy!
Good Dog. Edward.
Nothing.
With Each Additional Piece Of Baggage.
What Are You Saying?
And Take Him Out Again On Every Passing Whim Of Yours.
Muriel. Marriage Is...
Maybe You'll Just Go On Back To Sarah.
Don't Go Making Him Any Promises You Don't Intend To Keep.
How To Subtract!
Shall I Dry?
I Don't Think I Ever Will Be.
For Never Doing A Single Thing I Want!
Oh!
Hello. Macon.
I Worried When It Rained Last Night.
Uh. I've Been All Right.
Well. Good.
Ah. Yes. Actually.
Not Really.
No. You Didn't.
Let's Go.
We Can Never Forget It.
Oh.
It's Just My Work.
Don't Leave Me. Macon.
Go To Sleep. Muriel.
Sleep.
[Telephone Rings]
Oh.
Good-Bye.
[Clears Throat]
To Watch It With You.
You Wouldn't Believe How Lonely It Is.
Macon. Do You...
The One You Live With?
Muriel.
Do You Plan On Staying With Muriel Forever?
I Really Couldn't Say.
Macon. Come Home.
Let's Try Again.
[Engine Starts]
Me. Too. Sweetheart.
Just Doesn't Feel Right.
I Don't Know How.
[Dog Barking]
Thought I'd Bring You The Materials For Paris.
[Barking And Growling]
Yeah. It Just Arrived This Morning.
Is Not Coming Back?
Well. That Sounds About Right.
Under Control.
"Get Things Under Control." Tell Her.
Then Sit Back And Wait.
No. You're Right.
You're Absolutely Right.
It's Ok. It's-- It's Good.
Let's Make It Up.
Yeah.
Don't You Want To Know?
Well. I Don't.
"I Know You Better Than You Know Yourself. Macon."
If We Agree On All That. Can We Drop It?
[Repeats In French]
Excuse Me. Can I Get By?
You Were Falling To Pieces Before You Had Me.
[Knock On Door]
[Knock]
Ok.
Oh. For Crying Out Loud.
[Telephone Rings]
Goodness. Um...
Yes. Maybe I Do.
All Those Courses Forced On You.
[Knock On Door]
[Knock Knock]
Can't We Have A Bite Together?
You'll Wanna Scrape Off The Extra Pickle And Onion.
Hmm? Different People.
[Knock On Door]
Take Me Anyway.
Good Night. Muriel.
[Church Bells Ringing]
Muriel Pritchett.
Ahh.
Unh!
Ow!
Oh!
Muriel: Macon?
Macon?
Macon. When Are You Going To Change?
[Tv Announcer Speaking French]
Hello. Macon.
Everything's Taken Care Of.
So That Your Back Has A Chance To Heal.
Swallow.
Hi.
Ok.
Open.
She Seemed... Very Surprised.
I Swear It.
Do You Believe Me?
Yes. I Believe You.
Well. I'll Be Damned.
Don't Worry. It's 18.
What? No. Sarah. It Was A Terrible Idea.
So The Little Boy Wasn't The Reason.
You Could Have Taken Steps! For Once!
Sarah.
Hmm?
Sarah. I'm Going Back To Muriel.
I Know What You're Going To Say.
I Tried. But I Can't Make This Work.
But Maybe It's Not Too Late For Me To Start.
I Don't Know Why It's No Good For Us Anymore.
Who You Are When You're With Them.
No. It's Wrong To Think We Can Plan Everything...
As Though It Were A Business Trip.
When I Saw You...
At Rose's Wedding...
This Woman...
This Odd Woman... Helped Me.
To Decide Who I Am...
To Step Out Of The Leary Groove...
And Stay Out.
You Don't Need Me Anymore.
We Both Know That.
But I Need Her.
Attendez!
Au Revoir. Monsieur. Bon Voyage.
[Speaking French]
Stop For That...Woman.
